According to this invention there is embodied in the insole or sock a radio active material which may be in powder, granular or other form, or if desired the said material may be in the form of a paste or composition.

The insole or sock, which may be otherwise formed of any suitable material, is formed with one or more pockets to contain the material.

In order that the invention may be the better understood drawings are appended l5 showing the sock or insole, in which:
